Scott Rinckenberger

Photographer

North Bend, Washington

As a lifelong mountain athlete, Scott’s photographs are steeped in an admiration for alpine ecosystems; a hallmark of his work. Skis, bikes, boots and climbing shoes are his primary modes of travel in these remote areas. Scott’s work has been showcased in art exhibitions worldwide and has been featured by some of the world’s leading brands including Apple, REI, and Patagonia. His distinctively reductive compositions have been recognized with awards and honors from the Lucie International Photography Awards, Photo District News, Tokyo International Photo Awards, and more. While Scott’s work has taken him around the world, his upbringing in the forests of the Cascade foothills created deep roots from which he has never strayed for long. Moving to Seattle for college and early career development, he relocated to the Snoqualmie Valley with his young family in 2015 and hasn’t looked back.
